  • Period French Louis XVI Giltwood Firescreen, circa 1780
    Located in Dallas, TX
    This Louis XVI period giltwood firescreen is a rather unique find. Typically firescreens from this period (the late 1700’s) were produced with a tapestry or needlepoint body; this particular piece has a solid colored (gold) silk upholstery screen which meshes well with the giltwood frame.
